摘要
Among head and neck angiotumors, cystic lymphangioma occurs in infancy in most cases and it is rare in adulthood. Plunging ranula is one of the diseases which need to be distinguished from lymphangioma, though operation is the first choice therapy for both of these. In the present study, we report on 2 cases in whom we conducted intralesional injection of OK-432 for cervical lymphangioma and ranula found in 20 and 35 year-old female patients. We obtained excellent improvement. First of all, we punctured the tumors and sucked out the liquid content as much as possible, and then used OK-432 in the same volumes to those drawn out. No swelling was observed in either patient after 1 month, and cysts disappeared in CT 4 and 12 months after injection, respectively; at present, the prognosis is satisfactory, without recurrence. The intralesional injection of OK-432 is considered an effective method, as the speed of complete disappearance by this therapy is high. Cosmetically it is superb, leaving no lesions in the skin of the injection site.
